Many people know firsthand about the habit of some dogs to chew shoes.
Often, such behavior of a pet is explained by the beginning of the teething period.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the puppy chews everything.
But why do some adult dogs behave this way? The answer is simple: most likely, the four-legged friend is faced with stress, hunger or excess energy. And the owner is most likely to blame for this.
What do many dog owners do wrong?
They don't buy toys
A dog should have plenty of toys to chew on, and this need will likely arise in stressful situations.
Of course, you may not buy your dog toys, but then don't be surprised if he pays attention to your shoes or sneakers.
They feed us poorly
The dog must receive sufficient nutrients.
Otherwise, the pet will try to “eat” inedible things.
They don't walk well
Your four-legged friend needs to be provided with long walks accompanied by physical activity.
If the dog does not get tired, it will begin to redirect the accumulated energy. Usually the first "victim" of such a dog is shoes.
Talking to the dog before leaving home
When leaving the house and leaving the pet alone in the apartment, the owner should not talk to the four-legged friend for too long.
It's better to leave silently. After all, unnecessary conversations only worsen the dog's stress.
Earlier, dog owners were told why their pets might bite their owners.
